Eighty-Nine

precious tear: how much would one pay
to bottle that salt drop and
store it away?

translucent lacquer, luscious crystal-smooth to the
finest stroke of sad
genius

who painted your eyes so beautifully? is that
layer of clear
there to protect
or is it proof that you
're peeling,
a shivering crying baby
cuddled in fetal position,
trying for the
impossible return?
